8.   Do you have any additional comments about this course and/or instructor?
To add on, I personally enjoyed the pace of this course as I always managed to finish my assignments on time or even a few days earlier than the deadline.
The forum questions just have the right length for a quick read and evaluation. Love them!
I enjoyed this course and if I were to take it again I'd take it the same way-- with Professor Baybars and Asynchronous-- you can tell he understands what he's teaching and was easy to reach out to.
It was a very nice course. The workload was very nicely spread out and everything was doable. Although it is an async class and there isn't really much interaction, I like how forums were a way to interact with other students.
I really enjoyed this class because it challenged me and my knowledge about economics. The instructor had lots of resources available for us to use and he was easy to contact if need be.
I enjoyed taking this course overall. I think having in-person instruction might have been helpful to have a setting in which we can ask questions live however, I think it worked well.
I appreciated how organized everything was and all the time put into all the lectures were very helpful and really helped my learning experience.
No
No comments
I appreciate the reminder emails each week about what's due and what each deadline is.
Although this class was online asynchronous all lectures were very understandable and every chapter challenged me in different ways and really helped me learn more about economics. I relly enjoyed this class
N/A
great class overall and instructor made it enjoyable.
none i thought this course was great and I learned a lot along with enjoying the class.
This course was probably the hardest class I had, It must be paid attention to well in order to pass.
Maybe teach in a way to make the course a bit more interesting. It sounds like things were being read of a script.
Great class! Thank you for a great semester. Would have loved to take the class in person, but I am very thankful to have been able to take it asynchronously (as it fits my schedule much better).
He was quick to respond to emails which was helpful.
The course is well done for an introduction economics class, however, I feel it would benefit with some updating on examples of baseline economic theory as they seem out of touch with the current environment of world economics
Nothing in particular!
I believe this professor explained well in his lecture videos. He provided us a lot of resources for the class to help us get more practice and get a more in-depth learning. Transcripts were provided and were really helpful to follow along.
ive learned a lot in this class, everything is well organized and easy to understand

I enjoyed this course and this instructors.
The course is okay. Could use some improvements.
This class was really fun and enjoyed learning from it. I also liked that even though it was asynchronous the teacher was always readily available at any time within reason.
I believe he did a great job teaching and gave more than enough time to complete assignments.
no

Maybe try to do live sessions through zoom? Watching old videos are not very much fun and don't really get much interaction.
